Bring America's Clean Energy Future to Life
Target: U.S. SenateSponsored by: Sierra Club
The House of Representatives has just passed a historic energy bill.
The Senate will vote on the same bill soon. All the pieces are in place: A national renewable electricity standard means consumers across the country would save more than $13 billion on their energy bills by 2020.
Raising fuel economy standards will save American consumers $25 billion at the pump, create 170,800 new jobs in America, and cut U.S. global warming pollution from passenger vehicles 21 percent by 2030.
All the pieces are there, now the Senate just needs to flip the switch on America's new energy future before it heads home for the year!

Reducing foreign dependence on fossil fuels will improve our long term economic, ecological, as well as military sustainability.

Come on people - it's time to pull up your big-girl panties and actually do something right for a change! Think of the people - your people - the ones who you represent - instead of yourselves!

The legacy I wish to leave for future generations is not one of destruction and consumption but one of preservation and change. We need to change our culture for the sake of all mankind. Just think, if we had invested all the billions spent in Iraq on developing and implementing new, cleaner alternative energy consumption practices. We could have been steps ahead, instead we continue to develop our dependency on oil and line the pockets of those who force these practices on us. Stand up for change!!!
